So, now any 'mouseover' messages are unreadable. I have a very dark grey background behind black text. Resetting the Firefox 'skin' choice had no effect on the mouseover information boxes. Even in the default skin, the mouseover message appears with a dark grey background with black font.

I checked the OS settings to see what the default 'mouseover' settings are, and they are a beige background behind black text. In all other applications, and in other browsers, the mouseover is working normally.

How do I reset the mouseover text/background? I need either white text, or a light background.

I have included a screencapture of the mouseover box for your examination. You can see it is tantamount to being utterly illegible.

Thanks in advance, BH.

Hi FirefoxUser001,

I hope that you are doing well, I do not have an exact answer for you, however there is an addon called Stylish that has a repository of User Styles for customizing Firefox's interface. I did a few searches and found some styles that edits the mouse over for the url bar.

I believe that the style is the tool tip style. Let me know if any of these help:


You need to install this first for those to work ^ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire.../stylish/
